Matthew West
Too Young Too Soon
[Verse 1]
Hey there, Sam, that sure was some smile on your face
Standing on the stage in the fifth grade Christmas play
You were everybody's friend and nobody's enemy
But there were storm clouds deep inside you nobody else could see
What was really going on
And now we can't believe you're gone

[Chorus]
Too young, too soon
This world lost you
Hearts break in two
Too young, too soon

[Verse 2]
They say everybody's fighting a hidden battle of their own
And I've fought my own enough to know it's true
Well, sometimes lonely makes it hard to see that you're really not alone
We would've gladly stood beside to fight your fight with you
But now we ask God, "Why?"
We never thought we'd have to say goodbye

[Chorus]
Too young, too soon
This world lost you
Hearts break in two
Too young, too soon
Too soon
[Bridge]
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
It's way too young
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
It's way too soon
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
It's just too young
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
It's way too soon
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
Asking God, "Why?"
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)

[Chorus]
So be kind, speak love
Go find someone
Who needs a friend
Reach out your hand
Don't point, don't laugh
Life's too short for that
No cliques, start now
No one left out
'Cause hearts break in two
Too young, too soon
Hearts break in two
For the too young, too soon
